A/N: Welcome to TFSC! A month and a half after publishing this first chapter, I've decided to come back to the roots and polish the story. If you love the craziness of the SNK fandom, you will certainly (hopefully) like this fanfic as well! Just to note, I've tried to make the characters as realistic as possible, so don't expect a blubbering Levi fawning over Eren, a loving (and totally not abusive) friendship between Jean and Eren, or a laughing Mikasa. In addition, although they are texting on cellphone-like devices, I've added usernames for your amusement. With that said, enjoy!

Chapter 1: Hanji Introduces Texting to the Survey Corps

titanscientist started the Survey Corps conversation.

titanscientist: Hello dearies! As you've all heard of, the technicians and I have finally implemented an instant messaging system so we can communicate rapidly instead of using those coloured flares that, you know, TOTALLY AREN'T OBVIOUS TO THE TITANS.

titanscientist: I've also taken the liberty of giving you guys usernames.

titanscientist: Anyways, what do you think?

killeren was added to the conversation.

killeren: wow hanji...i'm impressed

titanscientist: Thank you Eren! I'm glad you like it!

killeren: what's up with my name though?

killeren: it sounds like i'm trying to kill myself...

titanscientist: WHAT?! Don't you get the reference?

killeren: no...

titanscientist: Kids these days...

titanscientist: Kill Bill? The crazy woman who tried to kill everyone who ruined her life?

killeren: oh yeah it kind of sounds familiar

killeren: but wasn't the crazy woman trying to kill bill?

killeren: i shouldn't be the one dying!

titanscientist: Pssh technicalities.

arminhammer was added to the conversation.

arminhammer: Umm Hanji...can we change our names by any chance?

arminhammer: I'm not sure if I really like this one...

killeren: HA

killeren: i'm sure corporal levi would XD

titanscientist: Yes he would!

titanscientist: But Armin, I spent so much time trying to come up with these clever names

scarymir was added to the conversation.

scarymir: really...i wouldn't have thought it...

killeren: but your name is really appropriate for you

scarymir: shut up titan freak

scarymir: you are so dead.

christandangel was added to the conversation.

christandangel: Aww come on guys, let's not argue :)

christandangel: I kind of like my username, Hanji!

titanscientist: THANK YOU! SOMEONE APPRECIATES MY GENIUS.

arminhammer: Well no shit, it actually describes Christa.

arminhammer: How does arminhammer describe me?

killeren: yeah how does it?

killeren: you're anything but buff

arminhammer: Eren, I appreciate you trying to help me

arminhammer: But please stop.

killeren: :P

titanscientist: It has nothing to do with your name, but it was just too good to pass up!
